I have to say no. I really like sabers, but I think this one is just too mush. The color is good, but not transparent on flamed maple AND with gold hardware (which I don't like anyway). The 'Kung Fu grip' (or whatever it's called) is plain useless. It's not like you can't grip the upper horn without it.

His custom plain 24-fret Saber he used before this one is pretty ok actually.

I like the color w/ the flame and I love 24 fret S's but I don't like the grip, the inlay and the gold. I might like the gold if they excluded the pickup covers and strap locks or made the hardware like partially black or cosmo, partially gold.

I love everything about the guitar apart from the grip and the trem. The trem is personal preference but the grip is like the JEM's handle, but with a punchline doesn't quite deliver probably because it's been done before.
